Ether Theory or Relativity
Theory?

This
website was created in June 2001. It has dealt from ellipsoidal wave
propagation in an luminiferous ether. The hypothesis in agreement
with H. Varcollier and L. Gooris was:

The one way speed of light is dependent on the system speed
v and on the emission angle

in
relation to the direction of motion

(1)

The two way speed of light is the harmonious average
value from equ. (1) for toward and away. At constant system speed
v it has the equal amountfor any emission angle

(2)

and explains
as far as the figures go the " zero result " of the
Michelson - Morley experiment, comparable the assumption of a
Lorentz contraction.

Conclusions
after 5 years internet presence:

There
was not an indication to the existence of ellipsoidal wave fronts
(with the exception of Fresnelís Ellipsoid in anisotropic
materials), and there was not a professional repetition of my
ultrasonic experiment.

Thatís
still my conviction:

There
is a luminiferous ether and an exact identical Michelson-Morley
experiment with sound in air must have the same result.

But
the wave fronts in moving systems are obviously spherical and not
ellipsoidal. That requires a new hypothesis and new experiments
with a better degree of accuracy.
